Comment: Not the most exciting hook that I've ever come up with and if anybody has a better idea, I would welcome it. There are photos of him, but none good enough for front page exposure. Schwede 66 00:25, 19 February 2012 (UTC)

Hook is interesting enough to me. Hook, article length, format, content all ok. However, the article was created on February 17, so can you move it to that group, please, or I will? --Rosiestep (talk) 20:39, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for the review, Rosiestep. Those date issues arise because I look at dates and times based on NZ time, whereas you might look at this with UTC or your local time zone settings. Either way, I've shifted the entry to 17 Feb. Schwede 66 23:45, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

I had a feeling that might be the case, Schwede... but alas, wasn't certain. Thank you for the shift. This one is good to go. --Rosiestep (talk) 04:02, 22 February 2012 (UTC)
